I just returned from a drive down to Georgia with my mom and my older sister. I love to refer to her as “older” as she insists on continuing to refer to me as “baby sister”.
Mom got to visit with her sisters and two remaining brothers, reminiscing and sharing all the family news. Catching up on grandchildren’s birthdays and achievements, recent weddings and new baby arrivals – two days probably wasn’t enough time to cover the activities of such a big family but we did a pretty thorough job!
As any well run family reunion should go – there was good company, good conversation, too much good food, lots of hugs and a few tears. That’s family. That’s a party.
